Though, I can tell you that C5 (Com. Edition) did manage 8:18 around there in the hands of the same dirver.
only 3 secs. difference between a C5 and C6, with 50 hp difference, on a track that size?

Almost all of the C6 road tests have mentioned some persistent handling discrepancies that limit its best times on the track. I wonder how long it will take GM to fix those bugs.

Dave Hill himself has said that the C5 Z06 is a bit quicker around a road course than the C6 Z51 6 Spd.
